"And these signs shall follow them
that believe. r They shall lay
hands on the sick and thev shall re-
cover"
After many centuries We find tbe
above fulfilled-on paper. A small but
noisy monthly in Chicago has left it's
original mission and now booms "Chris.
tian science" Heaters are sent out in
all directions. and send back accounts OF
their achievements. al.

and that error or disease cannot con
tinue to exist in my presence"
But another missionary holds that the
science is long range remedy. A raw.
Ing maniac is holding at bav an entire
household. by,aourishing ugly knives.
THE patient lives about forty minutes
walk from my house. I weht to my
room and proceeded to give him quiet
ing, soothing treatment" In thirty five
minutes during which no damage is re-
cor ded) the patient was perfectly sane,
wondered why people looked at him as
they would menaserie, ate supper and
went TO sleep. ? l.i.
The motto Of these scientists is Good
fills all space, leaving no room for evil"
Noadequate reason is given. why the
editor Of their organ took her husband
to Florida, where tho were ION he,vv
expenses" to recover his health. The
method can cure Insanity at two miles,
but cannot effect lung troubles at any
short distance, and by the concentrated
action OF all the healsrs IN Chicago.
While the editor is absent LADY from
England takes her place. Tuis new
editor learnt something in the old
paths Of science, among which is the
fact that theology" and atheism are
one and the same thing; other obsol etc
knowledge was gained from beautiful
and costly books hsvs been fed on all
my life because | was rich and highly

This new science does not pretend to
compete with common reforms such as
Socialism 1t is infinitely above such
things. The remedy for misery is sim L.
ply TO remark that good fills all space
there is no room for evil. When two
engines meet, and coaches are set on
fire, the remedy for those inside is
quoted above; the burning sensation is
only an impression. Nothing exists bnt
Mind, therefore the mass Of wreck ire
and humanity is only negative good
there is no evil. ?
The teachers Of this system stop at

Pigs are much troubled with
parasites because of their uHclean-
ly habits of feeding. They
consume all sorts of putrid matter,
vermin, and ordure of other
animals; hence they take into
their intestines large number of
germs and eggs of parasitic
animals and plants. Thus they
be come subject to all sorts of
d seases of this nature. There are
several kinds of worms which
inrest pigs, but the remedy for all
of them is the same. Give one

the first requisites toward success in

they need skilful welding. Tact, man

what You will, is the best spoke in
the wheel, and lacking this, the ability
to give correct translation fro'l the
dead languages, or the power TO olive
difficult or intricate problem, will not
furnish the motive power to make "the
wheels go round"
There are two kinds Of management:
the natural and the acquired. Some
taaShers seem to know instinctively
just what to do, and how, and when, in
order to secure the best results. That
Is natural tact. But any one having
ordinary ability, can learn some things
by using eyes, ears, and intelligence;
by studying child nature and observ-
ing cause and effect; by applying the
"golden rule" with more frequency
than the traditional one; by develop
ing al interest in each child, instead
OF Jumping them off into grades, classes
and divisions, like so many bales Of
cotton or packages of merchandise; by
becoming familiar with each ones
home life and surroundings, their
heredity, physical, mental and moral
qualities; everything in fact, which
helps make or mar character.
"But this is so much trouble
It is-truly. And so is everything
that is worth doing at all; and unless
you can put your time, strength, pur-
pose, and life, your very soul, into the
work, you had best leave the profess
sion and dig bitches or wash dishes as
the case may be.
For your own sake you should do
this, as well as for the sake of those
committed to your care-for your sue
cess will be limited in the same degree
that you lack management; and your
aspiration in your work should be to
approximate the perfection taught by
the Great Master, your noble exemplar.

Hard Study Not Unnea1thfu1,

The exercise OF the brain, under
proper conditions, is more unhealth.
1ul than the exercise of the arm or any
other part of the body. 1t was made
Tor use. Its functions are as essential
to life and health as those of the stom-
ach and lungs, and its full powerful de-
velopment is essential to the highest
health and perfection of the bodily
powers. Like all other parts of the
body, the brain is subject to waste.
and demands nourishment, more in
proportion to its size than any othe,
organ of the body. The fresh air,
general exercise, and proper alterna-
lions OF repose, required for the health
OF all other parts Of the physical sys-
tenn, are also requisite for O healthy
brain; and these being withheld will
kill the student as quick as it will an
other man, but no quicker. That many
students lose health is not owing to
hard study, but to close confinement
without fresh air, and to insufficient
general exercise. Intellectual efforts
ought to promote the health, and
doubtless do when the other functions
OF the body are not sacrificed for it.
We are not SO badly constructed that,
In order to be fatwe must consent to be
Tools; nor is dyspeptic stomach the
necessary companion of wise head.
Only the best and the worse students
usually show injury,-the best because
OF over-work and under-rest, bad air
and inaction; the worst because Of
idleness and dissipation. Students
between the two classes usually escape
injury, except as they approach either
one or the other of the classes named.
The marking system in our colleges,
while it has certain advantages which
professors are quite ready to perceive
and use, is fraught with SO many dan.
gers and positive evils that it can
scarcely be defended. The system of
college honors, which usually stands
connected with and crowns the system
OF marking, is another of those bad
and dangerous usages to which we ex-
pose college life. 1t is questionable
whether the public exercises with
which the school year of our public
high schools is usually closed, have
hot the same bad effects. And worst of
ALL the stimulation excited by these
systems of which have spoken is as
nnfrlendly to sound scholarship and
real intellectual power as it is to good
asalth.-Dr. Gregory.

Brine Sailing Versus Dry Sailing

The advocates of the so called
new process" of brine saltinc-
butter are fitting opinions quite
freely with the advocates of the
method of ''dry sailing" There
are successful butter workers on
bo.h SIDES, which makes it appear
that each method possesses merits
and that each produces a good
quality of butter. The question
to be decided seems to be which
method involves the least labor.
AS high authority as 7. D. Curtis
takes the grourd that dry sailing
is equally advantageous with the
n ew process and less troublesome.
He claimes that the easiest way t,
salt butter is the usual one, viz:
applying the salt direct to the
butter when it has reached the
granular state.
